Chapter 7

I woke up in my big bed and I didn't know where I was, until I remembered I was at the Beckham's.


I got up, took a shower and put on a white tank top, and black shorts. I brushed and straightened my hair, then put on a cross necklace that my mom gave me then I put on my black converse. (Picture in media slot)


I grabbed my skateboard and walked downstairs.


"Going out?" Victoria asked, smiling at me.


"Yes, but I won't be long, I promise." I said as I opened the front door.


"No rush! Have fun, dear." She said as she waved goodbye.


I walked out of the front door and started to skateboard. Paparazzi were taking pictures of me, but honestly I didn't care. I just kept skateboarding.


I finally reached Starbucks, so I stopped. I went in and ordered a Vanilla bean Frappe.


The girl who worked there was really nice.


"Hey, aren't you Phoebe Rhodes?" She said as she took my order.


"Yeah." I said smiling at her.


"I've heard a lot about you, my mothers a huge fan!" She said giggling.


I giggled.


"I'm Hadley Porter by the way." She said holding out her hand.


"Nice to meet you, Hadley!" I said as I shook her hand.


"You're 15 right?" She asked.


"Yes!" I said as I payed for my drink.


"I'm 15 too. I go to school with Romeo." She said as she made my drink.


"Are you two friends?" I asked, trying to keep the conversation interesting.


"No. But I know he likes this girl named Valerie." She said looking up at me.


"Ooh, nice to know!" I said smirking.


She giggled.


"Here you go!" She said handing me my drink.


"Thank you!" I said as I grabbed it.


"Hope to see you around Phoebe!" She said as I was walking towards the door.


"You too, Hadley!" I said as I waved goodbye.


I got back on my skateboard and skateboarded to a park. I sat on the bench and got on my iPhone while I drank my Starbucks.


"Phoebe?" I heard a voice say to me. I have heard that voice before.


I looked up. It was Romeo. He must have been with a group of his friends playing soccer, or as they call it, football.


"Oh hey, Romeo!" I said looking up at him.


A few of his friends walked up to him.


"Hey Romeo, is this that girl you like?" The one boy asked as he hit Romeo in the shoulder.


"I thought you liked Valerie!" I said smirking at Romeo.


"Ugh no, who told you that?" Romeo asked, he acted disgusted.


"Hadley." I said looking up from my phone.


"Hadley Porter?" He asked as he held the soccer ball in my hand.


"Yeah, you know her?" I asked, I knew he did, but I liked joking around.


"Yes, she tried to kill me when we were in 4th grade." He said. His friends all laughed.


"How?" I asked, I was actually curious because Hadley seemed pretty cool.


"She was my lab partner and she put the wrong thing in our water and it exploded!" He said, his eyes got wide when he said 'exploded'.


I laughed, and so did his friends.


"Well, I would love to talk more about you getting killed, but I can't. See you later, Romeo." I said waving and walking away.


"Dude, if you aren't going to date her, I will!" I heard one of his friends say from behind me.


"Psh you wish!" I heard Romeo say.


And that was the last I heard as I got on my skateboard, and skateboarded back to the Beckham's house.
